Jim is correct that your Saloon will be Mk1 Fiesta based dampers and springs, as it's older than mu Saloon, which is in the fifties, iirc. There are a bunch of washers and bushed that might need replacing, so I'd recommend contacting Eddie Ruskin at Quantum Kit Cars, since I believe he has sourced the required parts, which are very hard to get hold of.
The lower suspension parts are Mk3/4 Escort, in case you are think about changing bushes too.
